Sultan Bahu (1631-1691) is universally admitted to have been among the greatest mystics of India. His father was a resident of Jhang district. He is said to have been a person of quite a disposition and so was his wife, the mother of Bahu. Bahu belonged to the Qadri school of Sufis and was a disciple of Hazrat Habib-ullah. He is not defiant towards Sharia. The tone of his verse is melancholy. He lays stress on the Sufi formula of ‘dying before death.’ However, he was against the show of religiosity and piety. The most striking thing about Bahu’s poetry is that every line ends in ‘hu.’ Hu is regarded as a name of Allah, and it is considered highly meritorious to repeat it as often as possible. Lines ending in hu are an innovation in Punjabi poetry. Bahu, as judged from his poetry, belonged to the philosophic school of Sufis, but for some reason or other hid his philosophy under the veil of orthodoxy. One possible reason may be his sainthood, which did not permit him that liberty which Bulleh Shah would enjoy. He had become a ‘pir’ which demanded a certain amount of reserve and prudence on his part. Bahu’s verse is composed in simple and unpretentious style. It has a well-marked character of its own and rests entirely on the recources of the poet’s thought and knowledge of the language. There is an absolute lack of artificiality. Another thing which is creditable about him is that his verse is pious and bereft of all human love and its ideals.

Lyrics

Ae tan mera chashmaN hove
Tan main murshid vekh na rajjaaN hu

Looñ looñ de mudh lakh lakh chashmaN
Hik kholaaN hik kajjaaN hu

Itna diTtheya sabar na aave
Hor kite vall bhajjaaN hu

Murshid da deedar hai bahu
Mainnu lakh karoDaan hajjaaN hu

When people present themselves as moral leaders, they automatically commit themselves to living by a higher standard. One of the main reasons people have double standards is that they desire to have the best of both worlds. They go to religious places and as soon as they walk out the door, they go back to living their "regular" lives. The people committing hypocritical acts normally try to use some form of rationalization to justify their actions. Combining Hazrat Shah Hussain and Baba Bulleh Shah thoughts = دنیا مطلب دی
